   Wine, fortified with the power of porting? I should say Port was a perfect name.

   Strongly disagree on this. Where I am, a lawyer will tell you squarely if something is criminal. If the facts or law are unclear, they may advise about the balance of risk that creates, but the conclusion (if x, therefore crime) will be cle

   My understanding was that the two domains are equivalent. The following sites seem to confirm my understanding. Are you sure it isn't you? https://support.google.com/mail/thread/125577450/gmail-and-g...

   Thanks for this. As a new user of Ubuntu I stumbled into the meta-T shortcut but couldn't find out how to take advantage of it. Shift-T is what I was missing. I didn't have the terminology I needed to search effectively either.

   I read that as being a subscription to lesson-planning software for teachers, not for the calculator itself.

   I think markdown might be the solution here.

   This seems hypocritical to me. I kind of get it as a way to level the playing field in one sense (though not, I expect, in many other senses). But their "inclusive language" guide is not internally consistent, and in fact breaks d

   This isn't just an old tradition. It's a coded signal - and one that the river users can be assumed to understand. There's no principle difference between this use of straw to caution navigators on water, and the use of (for

    Just to say, thanks for xordle. And for not serving obscenity on it.

    This is Don Norman whose work led to the term a Norman Door. A push door which has a pullable handle on it tricks the user into thinking it's a pull door. Sure, you can just push it if you know; but good design should be intuitive with

    I use please. I found myself defaulting to it and thought carefully about whether it was stupid. In the end I decided to keep doing it for my own benefit: if I get into the habit of dropping it, it could easily leak into human conversation!

    I don't agree with this from my own experience. To me, classical music at high compression suffers far worse than modern bands.

    "This would be analogous to sending UDP packets. Messages are sent without confirmation of delivery. After giving these instructions to the riders you realize you don't know when or if the letters arrived at their destination.&quo

    Yes, all the time. Every time anyone posts a comment here or reads an article to form a opinion, without instituting a blind study behind it, they are deciding to proceed without nuanced research. The point is that in doing so we are at ris

    Presumably this was just downloading the source file, not the linked images and any other heavier aspects of the page.

    I detest my cynicism that immediately made me roll my eyes and remember that there's an election coming up, and the opposition party is making big economic growth promises. So this is very timely for the incumbent government. The ONS o

    I hope this short comment gets the up votes it deserves. Access to news information is a boon. Restricting it is a step backwards. If lack of access dissuades people from finding information, the people as a whole will be more likely to see

    He goes into great detail about the fine-ness of the weave, and projects and business practices designed to reward good craftsmanship and promote the art (and craft) of weaving. It's a joy to read because he writes well about something

    I have always viewed them as "more relatable". People may well be biased to think of more relatable things as more true, but I don't think that is the fault of the colourisation or how it is presented.

    There is a complete-seeming list of ingredients on the product purchase page at https://sentiaspirits.com/products/sentia-red-50cl-black-50c... I was also annoyed by the FAQ.

    Seems like this isn't considered to be a big issue, beyond that it is a very visible thing that instinctively 'feels' like a bad idea. > Rocket engines spray water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) into the ionosphere, quench

    I couldn't understand this comment and wondered whether you had misread the parent. The point is that they are posting job openings and getting thousands of applicants per role i.e. They are oversubscribed.
